Former Baylor receiver KD Cannon on university's sexual assault scandal: 'I think a lot of it was made up'

Just over two years ago, the floodgates of Baylor's sexual assault scandal caused the firing of then head coach Art Briles and university president Ken Starr.

Now, former Baylor wide receiver and current Dallas Cowboy KD Cannon said in an interview with The Star-Telegram that he thinks some of the things that came out about the scandal were fabricated.

"No one heard anything about this until it came out (in the media). Nothing. It was just like all new all at once. Nobody knew what was going on, or had heard this. We didn't know, and the coaches didn't know about it," Cannon said.
